The m41t80 driver can read and set the alarm, but it doesn't
seem to have a functional alarm irq.

This causes failures when the generic core sees alarm functions,
but then cannot use them properly for things like UIE mode.

Disabling the alarm functions allows proper error reporting,
and possible fallback to emulated modes. Once someone fixes
the alarm irq functionality, this can be restored.

If the alarm time programming in the rtc is ever in the past, it won't fire,
and any other alarm will be queued after it so they won't fire either.

So any time that the alarm might be in the past, we need to trigger
the irq handler to ensure the old alarm is cleared and the timer queue
is fully in the future.

This can happen:
 - when we first initialise the alarm
 - when we set the time in the rtc.

so follow both of these by scheduling the timer work function.

The expiry function compares the timer against current time and does
not expire the timer when the expiry time is >= now. That's wrong. If
the timer is set for now, then it must expire.

Make the condition expiry > now for breaking out the loop.

Fix an outstanding issue that has been reported since 2.6.37.
Under a heavy loaded machine processing "fork()" calls could

The problem is that in copy_page_range() we turn lazy mode on,
and then in swap_entry_free() we call swap_count_continued()
which ends up in:

         map = kmap_atomic(page, KM_USER0) + offset;

and then later we touch *map.

Since we are running in batched mode (lazy) we don't actually
set up the PTE mappings and the kmap_atomic is not done
synchronously and ends up trying to dereference a page that has
not been set.

Looking at kmap_atomic_prot_pfn(), it uses
'arch_flush_lazy_mmu_mode' and doing the same in
kmap_atomic_prot() and __kunmap_atomic() makes the problem go
away.

Interestingly, commit b8bcfe99 ("x86/paravirt: remove lazy
mode in interrupts") removed part of this to fix an interrupt
issue - but it went to far and did not consider this scenario.

Following is from Notes of section 11.5.3 of Intel processor
manual available at:

  http://www.intel.com/Assets/PDF/manual/325384.pdf

For the Pentium 4 and Intel Xeon processors, after the sequence of
steps given above has been executed, the cache lines containing the
code between the end of the WBINVD instruction and before the
MTRRS have actually been disabled may be retained in the cache
hierarchy. Here, to remove code from the cache completely, a
second WBINVD instruction must be executed after the MTRRs have
been disabled.

This patch provides resolution for that.

Ideally, I will like to make changes only for Pentium 4 and Xeon
processors. But, I am not finding easier way to do it.
And, extra wbinvd() instruction does not hurt much for other
processors.

In commit f8924e77 ("x86: unify mp_bus_info"), the 32-bit
and 64-bit versions of MP_bus_info were rearranged to match each
other better.  Unfortunately it introduced a regression: prior
to that change we used to always set the mp_bus_not_pci bit,
then clear it if we found a PCI bus.  After it, we set
mp_bus_not_pci for ISA buses, clear it for PCI buses, and leave
it alone otherwise.

In the cases of ISA and PCI, there's not much difference.  But
ISA is not the only non-PCI bus, so it's better to always set
mp_bus_not_pci and clear it only for PCI.

Without this change, Dan's Dell PowerEdge 4200 panics on boot
with a log indicating interrupt routing trouble unless the
"noapic" option is supplied.  With this change, the machine
boots reliably without "noapic".

The kernel stack overflow is checked in stack_overflow_check(),
which may wrongly detect the overflow if the stack pointer in
user space points to the kernel stack intentionally or
accidentally. So, the actual overflow is never detected after
this misdetection because WARN_ONCE() is used on the detection
of it.

This patch adds user-mode-vm checking before it to avoid this
problem and bails out early if the user stack is used.

When you do:
        $ perf record -e cycles,cycles,cycles noploop 10

You expect about 10,000 samples for each event, i.e., 10s at
1000samples/sec. However, this is not what's happening. You
get much fewer samples, maybe 3700 samples/event:

$ perf report -D | tail -15
Aggregated stats:
           TOTAL events:      10998
            MMAP events:         66
            COMM events:          2
          SAMPLE events:      10930
cycles stats:
           TOTAL events:       3644
          SAMPLE events:       3644
cycles stats:
           TOTAL events:       3642
          SAMPLE events:       3642
cycles stats:
           TOTAL events:       3644
          SAMPLE events:       3644

On a Intel Nehalem or even AMD64, there are 4 counters capable
of measuring cycles, so there is plenty of space to measure those
events without multiplexing (even with the NMI watchdog active).
And even with multiplexing, we'd expect roughly the same number
of samples per event.

The root of the problem was that when the event that caused the buffer
to become full was not the first event passed on the cmdline, the user
notification would get lost. The notification was sent to the file
descriptor of the overflowed event but the perf tool was not polling
on it.  The perf tool aggregates all samples into a single buffer,
i.e., the buffer of the first event. Consequently, it assumes
notifications for any event will come via that descriptor.

The seemingly straight forward solution of moving the waitq into the
ringbuffer object doesn't work because of life-time issues. One could
perf_event_set_output() on a fd that you're also blocking on and cause
the old rb object to be freed while its waitq would still be
referenced by the blocked thread -> FAIL.

Therefore link all events to the ringbuffer and broadcast the wakeup
from the ringbuffer object to all possible events that could be waited
upon. This is rather ugly, and we're open to better solutions but it
works for now.

On AMD family 10h we see firmware bug messages like the following:

 [Firmware Bug]: cpu 6, try to use APIC500 (LVT offset 0) for vector 0x10400, but the register is already in use for vector 0xf9 on another cpu
 [Firmware Bug]: cpu 6, IBS interrupt offset 0 not available (MSRC001103A=0x0000000000000100)
 [Firmware Bug]: using offset 1 for IBS interrupts
 [Firmware Bug]: workaround enabled for IBS LVT offset
 perf: AMD IBS detected (0x00000007)

We always see this, since the offsets are not assigned by the BIOS for
this family. Force LVT offset assignment in this case. If the OS
assignment fails, fallback to BIOS settings and try to setup this.

The fallback to BIOS settings weakens the family check since
force_ibs_eilvt_setup() may fail e.g. in case of virtual machines.
But setup may still succeed if BIOS offsets are correct.

Other families don't have a workaround implemented that assigns LVT
offsets. It's ok, to drop calling force_ibs_eilvt_setup() for that
families.

With the patch the [Firmware Bug] messages vanish. We see now:

 IBS: LVT offset 1 assigned
 perf: AMD IBS detected (0x00000007)

People with old AMD chips are getting hung boots, because commit
bcb80e53 ("x86, microcode, AMD: Add microcode revision to
/proc/cpuinfo") moved the microcode detection too early into
"early_init_amd()".

At that point we are *so* early in the booth that the exception tables
haven't even been set up yet, so the whole

	rdmsr_safe(MSR_AMD64_PATCH_LEVEL, &c->microcode, &dummy);

doesn't actually work: if the rdmsr does a GP fault (due to non-existant
MSR register on older CPU's), we can't fix it up yet, and the boot fails.

Fix it by simply moving the code to a slightly later point in the boot
(init_amd() instead of early_init_amd()), since the kernel itself
doesn't even really care about the microcode patchlevel at this point
(or really ever: it's made available to user space in /proc/cpuinfo, and
updated if you do a microcode load).

The idea behind commit d91ee586 ("cpuidle: replace xen access to x86
pm_idle and default_idle") was to have one call - disable_cpuidle()
which would make pm_idle not be molested by other code.  It disallows
cpuidle_idle_call to be set to pm_idle (which is excellent).

But in the select_idle_routine() and idle_setup(), the pm_idle can still
be set to either: amd_e400_idle, mwait_idle or default_idle.  This
depends on some CPU flags (MWAIT) and in AMD case on the type of CPU.

In case of mwait_idle we can hit some instances where the hypervisor
(Amazon EC2 specifically) sets the MWAIT and we get:

  Brought up 2 CPUs
  invalid opcode: 0000 [#1] SMP

  Pid: 0, comm: swapper Not tainted 3.1.0-0.rc6.git0.3.fc16.x86_64 #1
  RIP: e030:[<ffffffff81015d1d>]  [<ffffffff81015d1d>] mwait_idle+0x6f/0xb4

  Call Trace:

  RIP  [<ffffffff81015d1d>] mwait_idle+0x6f/0xb4
   RSP <ffff8801d28ddf10>

In the case of amd_e400_idle we don't get so spectacular crashes, but we
do end up making an MSR which is trapped in the hypervisor, and then
follow it up with a yield hypercall.  Meaning we end up going to
hypervisor twice instead of just once.

The previous behavior before v3.0 was that pm_idle was set to
default_idle regardless of select_idle_routine/idle_setup.

We want to do that, but only for one specific case: Xen.  This patch
does that.
